Synopsis

A new Sukey Reynolds mystery - When ancient historian Doctor Whistler is found dead and the letter he claimed was from St Paul goes missing, all evidence points towards Dr Lamont. Constable Sukey Reynolds has an apparently straightforward case, but her instincts tell her it is too simple: the victim was about to hand Lamont the script, so why bother to kill him for it? She must find another motive for murder...

From Booklist:

Rowlands' new Sukey Reynolds mystery starts slowly but eventually heats up and speeds to a slam-bang ending. A noted archaeologist is found stabbed to death, the valuable artifacts he had in his possession missing. Suspicion falls on the local academic who discovered the body, but Sukey doesn't buy it. This satisfying procedural boasts detail-rich plots featuring realistic depictions of investigatory routine and engaging interplay between the coppers involved. Emily Melton
